Some tips on how to deal or "cure" a depression on your own...
    #5128341 - 01/01/06 09:57 AM (18 years, 1 month ago)

Ok then so let me try and give you guys some of my tips that helped me a lot on taking down my depression...

I've been down for a while and I'm trying to get up but it's just hard for me to put all the energy in it but I'll try and give you guys the things I used to do and helped me in some ways.


Well first off if you really feel like you can't help yourself anymore then go see a psychiatrist and get professional help! If you're like me and don't want to deal with all that and don't trust a psychiatrist and feel comfertable around them and want to try it yourself then here are some tips...


Go out and breath in some clean air. I don't mean walking on the streets but go to the beach or to the woods and get your head cleared up and think about where you are in life at the moment. I try and do that each day and it helps me for some time. You shouldn't think that 1 visit to the woods or beach can help you but if you go a lot and think about where you are and just take a not of the beauty of the woods and the wildlife and see how they live without worrying about anything... It makes me realise that we should just live on and just take it all easy...

Stop doing drugs. I know it's hard and I'm not saying that I'm able to do it right now but if you can than do it! Drugs aren't you answer, it'll only make you feel more down and will make you confused if you use it on a daily basis.

Go out with friends and have some fun. Do things you enjoyed when youy didn't feel depressed. It might be hard to think of it but I enjoyed skateboarding a lot and I'm getting more into it again cause it makes me feel good. I enjoy the feeling of cruising down the street and just jumping some stairs while you're cruising down the city.

Take someone in trust and just tell them how you feel so they can support you and watch out for you. If you're going to deep then they can help you or get you to see a psychiatrist or in get you admitted to a psych ward. I ended up with a psychiatrist last year cause of someone I trusted.

Make sure you get enough sleep.



Well I can't think of anything else that has helped me (or I tried and helped for a while untill I couldn't do it anmore). But if I think of anything else then I'll post...

If any of you guys got some other tips that you'd like to to add feel free to reply

I guess you have to figure out what's making you feel like shit? It could be a number of reasons known to you or not, so a doctors always good just in case

get outside of your daily routine,

REBT (Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy) has really taken it's place in the last couple of years. I started researching on this in the early 90's. It is some very interesting stuff. If you'd like to read more do a search for it or it's father, Dr. Albert Ellis.
I'd like to give an example, it really helped with my anxiety and to relieve my inverted anger (that I didn't even know I had). Take two vietnam war veterans, one is sitting in a wheelchair staring out the window day in and day out, another is out running races for charity in his wheelchair and getting involved with the community. What is the difference in the two? Well, alot, but for starters, Dr. Ellis's theory is what they are telling themselves. That's where the Rational part comes in.
Think about something in your life that makes you sad or anxious, now write down the actual words associated with this thought (ie, terrible, catastrophic, unbearable). When you look at it , the words are actually irrational and causes a more extreme feeling.
So, in effect, the thought creates the feeling and we act on our feelings.
So, changing the thought to be a realistic and rational (It is bearable, and I have to move on. Unfortunate things happen) one changes the whole chain of events.
There is much more, but, I just wanted to make an introduction here.
This, in combination with the things that are mentioned above (fresh air, noticing the beauty in the world, etc...) helped me personally to get a handle on things that I didn't even realize were bothering me.

I'm not intending this for anybody in particular, just felt the urge to do so. I hope somebody who reads this gives it a check. Very insightful stuff and, BTW, has helped me more than any medication.

:peace:

Yes!  Ellis' techniques are very helpful.  He has written many books, but the best one for "regular folks" (as opposed to therapists and other professionals) is "Guide to Rational Living."

I recommend it all the time.  :grin:

psilo's tip: stop treating depression and anxiety like it is a tangible virus and something extrinsic to yourself. Your not going to get anywhere putting responsibility on abstract notions.
think about it.... would you try to "cure" homosexuality with a pill? because that is what doctors and psychiatrists were trying to do up until about 1992.

Meditation.

I basically said "fuck it" when it came to depression. I couldn't stand being depressed. I had been so my entire life and knew nothing different. I just stopped feeling like shit, made myself feel better, looked at the brighter things in life and started meditating. I didn't trick myself or brainwash myself into thinking I was happy, I just let go and loosened up. Started thinking rationally and allowed myself to enjoy life.

I've been the happiest son of a bitch for the last couple of years, even in times of turmoil I can muster enough will power to not let it eat me rotten.
